I'd been building hopes so long. Honey, I must have lost sight of what went wrong. 'Cause in sorrow's blinding light today. Baby, it looks like my dreams were made of clay.
CHORUS:. Well don't be sad 'cause you got what you wanted. You should be glad to know that I'm finally gone. Don't feel bad or be disappointed. 'Cause you got what you wanted all along.
